Rook--Robinson Rules


Mom and Dad invited us to dinner to visit with Aunt JoAnn, Uncle Clark and DeeAnn Robinson. We enjoyed catching up on family matters. The most popular topic was "Rook--Robinson Rules." We had fun recounting all of the sayings popularized by Hap--the founder of the Robinson Rules Rook Dynasty.
Here are a few:
Lead 'em and weep! --
What did you do THAT for????---
I'd rather be hung for a sheep than a goat!---
Moses wept and [no one was sure what came next??]---
and my favorite, "Length is better than strength."
Add your own sayings in the comment section...

We all voted that Austin must update the Wikipedia "Rook" site again!

The child on the front row, far right seems to be uncomfortable? Length is better than strength? Should that mean one should endure to the end?
